(not sure who has seen this article before, but it's been 6 months ago, and I still have not heard when the DVD will come out, but this article at least gives hope that it will come out someday_
http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=2056 Roseanne - A glimmer of hope for Roseanne fans! 8/12/2004 Here's a bit of hope for fans of Roseanne, who can't wait to see this show make it to DVD. Among those fans are my wife (who's miffed that so many of my favorite series are out or coming out, but that her absolute favorite isn't available yet), and - as we've told you - the star of the show herself. In that previous story, we informed you that the rights-holder, Carsey-Werner-Mandabach, was busy shopping around for a DVD distributor of their properties. As we mentioned yesterday, Fox Home Entertainment has licensed two other CWM titles for DVD distribution: That '70s Show (scheduled to hit late October/early November), and short-run animated series God, The Devil, and Bob (planned for early 2005). Variety has this report on the subject (selected portions shown; please click the preceding link for the entire article): Carsey-Werner-Mandabach finally is making a splash in the DVD market, pacting with Fox Home Entertainment to begin releasing its series on DVD -- starting with hit laffer "That '70s Show." Pact calls for Fox to distribute only "That '70s Show" and CWM's short-lived animated "God, the Devil and Bob." If those releases go well, however, CWM has told Fox the studio is first in line to release two other big titles in CWM's library: "The Cosby Show" and "Roseanne." CWM co-prexy/chief operating officer Dirk van de Bunt said the company talked to several studios about releasing CWM titles on DVD. Fox "gave a very effective marketing proposal, and we thought they were the way to go," he said. ...CWM's only experience in DVD sales has been through an international release of "3rd Rock From the Sun" and a deal with Columbia House, which packaged a series of three-episode "best-of" DVDs for "The Cosby Show." That's good news for Roseanne fans, because the success of That '70s Show on DVD seems to be a sure bet. The more that one sells, the more chance there is for Roseanne to make it out. Stay tuned, and we'll let you know more as the situation develops! Thanks to "Jayson" for the link.
